Alumna Shelby Ferriter (B.IARCH, \u201918) was named the winner of the Common Thread for the Cure Scarf design competition hosted by Crossville Inc<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Crossville Inc., one of the college\u2019s industry partners<\/a> and a world premiere tile manufacturer, hosts the biennial competition to benefit the Common Thread for the Cure Foundation.<\/a><\/p>\n

Ferriter\u2019s design, titled \u201cClimb for a Cure,\u201d aims to empower those battling breast cancer.\u00a0Her design features mountains wrapped in a pink ribbon, the international symbol for breast cancer awareness.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mountains are not only Crossville\u2019s logo; it\u2019s also a symbol of the climb that those suffering from breast cancer are going to face,\u201d explained Ferriter. \u201cWith each step, each day and each dollar raised, we get\u00a0closer to the top of the mountain and closer to finding a cure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later this year, Ferriter\u2019s design will be used to produce scarves to benefit the Helping Hands grants<\/a> through Common Thread for the Cure Foundation. \u201cMy hope is that when those battling breast cancer wear this scarf, they are reminded of the strength they hold and are encouraged to keep fighting. Slowly\u00a0but surely, we will climb to a cure,\u201d stated Ferriter.<\/p>\n

Ferriter commends the college\u2019s partnership with Crossville Inc. In her third year in the School of Interior Architecture, her studio was partnered with the manufacturer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe partnership we had with Crossville as 3rd-year students has helped me with connections in job seeking and in this competition,\u201d said Ferriter. \u201cI am grateful for the opportunities UT continues to give me, even though my time [at the university] has ended,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ferriter now is moving to Memphis, Tenn. to begin working at Looney Ricks Kiss, an architecture and interior design firm. Originally from Maryland, she learned of the Memphis firm during the college\u2019s Career Day.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
